The GOP race for U.S. Senate in Mississippi has been a long one, filled with scandals, allegations and lots of emotions. Even as we move beyond the June 24 GOP primary runoff, the heat continues to fly on social media.

Rarely has a race for a U.S. Senate seat from Mississippi garnered such national scrutiny. Twitter accounts for the campaigns of Sen. Thad Cochran and state Sen. Chris McDaniel became "must check" pieces on the internet each day from everyone obsessed with the #mssen race. Groups from outside and inside the state turned their attention - and considerable follower counts - to the runoff.

It's fair to say that the Mississippi Senate race for the GOP nomination has held many of its battles via social media, especially Twitter. There have also been some - not a lot, but still some - lighter moments where humor has come into play.

Here are some of the buzziest Twitter accounts that have been making waves during the election, the runoff election and beyond.
